    Infrastructure isn’t there, and if you don’t own a home on 240v its even more expensive. And I’ll be damned if I’m going to pull up and wait 30 extra minutes on top of my charge time if a charger isn’t free. PHEV will get most folks around on zero or very little gas and you leave behind any range anxiety or worries about finding a charger every single night. It’s doable on 120v breakers as well. Most the peers I know in the upper middle class range are all eyeing up PHEV and have little reason to go full EV. Hell, I’m going to buy an f150 and the only time I’ll need to fill it is because the gas is going to go stale or I’m towing.
